ST:TNG 1.5 The Last Outpost

Oh, this one is about T9 energy converters.  Awesome.

First impressions, why is Geordi on the bridge so often instead of in engineering?  Probably for the same reason the captain goes on so many away missions..  Or does he just lead the way in the movies?

Starting to suspect I may have hallucinated that Riker ever had a beard.  I may have to put it down as a wonderful dream, never to be fulfilled.

Tasha Yar isn't dead yet.  Bah.

Oh, first encounter with the Ferengi!  Although they never met before, they subscribe to the same verticality rules as the Federation.  No problems with ships meeting at odd angles to each other.

WTF.  The entire ship is losing power and Geordi is still sitting in the bridge updating Facebook or whatever..  I guess he's cool as long as gravity doesn't fail..

Data gets caught in a chinese finger trap.  Apparently he lacks the upper body strength to defeat that friction..

Pretty sure the Ferengi were designed while drunk.  "Let's just give them butt heads.  OK?"  "Winner! "  And thus, the douchebags of the Star Trek universe were born.

They officially did decide to still devote power to their gravity systems as they RAN OUT OF OXYGEN.  Maslow's hierarchy was lost in the mid-21st century wars.

Oh crap.  I got distracted at the end.  Now I'll never know if they got their energy converter back.  Why even bother continuing with the series?  That lack of knowledge will haunt me.  Always.
